Why not though? Are there any other 12.7 with no all aspect missiles?
Forever trapped by the Britain tax
Yeah…
and then devs have abandonned SB, so not even a 13.3 bracket for it
Could be worse, Could be the event tomcat with Aim-9P at 13.0
You have all aspect missiles on it, the Sparrows are all aspect, just not IR. Having access to all aspect IR missiles is not a requirement to be 12.7.
You get other advantages over the other 12.7 planes in return for not having AIM-9Ls, namely the access to Phoenixes and a mighty fine radar.
Plus, you can get downtiered into 11.7 to 12.3 matches. Which can be full with premium players that have no idea how to defend against a Aim-54 and consider it the spawn of satan :)

As the guy that constantly lose 75% of his team because of them dying to Phoenixes, I too consider them the spawn of satan

Playing devil’s advocate for a moment. I don’t think it’s the F-14s fault. It’s extremely bad ARB gamemode design fault.
In SB, if I play the 12.7 bracket in the GR4 I barely see F-14s and when I do, they normally get kills with Aim-7 not Aim-54s.

I am pretty sure that it isn’t flat when it is combat ready

Looking close up to it, it has a moment system where if the commander push the head up it goes up, so it could be like that (add a modification for the head to be both pushed up and down)

I can guarantee to you that most teams in an uptier against the F-14 would still fall apart if ARB was better designed. The fact that most maps don’t offer any natural cover is a way bigger problem.
The Type 60 is a low, compact vehicle. Layout:
The commander was seated to the middle, left of the two recoiless rifles, his position attached to the hydraulic lifting mounting so to remain at its height when elevated before firing. He was given a single domed hatch cover opening rearwards, and it had acces to a day periscopic sight froward of it and extra vision block to his rear.
Be careful what you wish for or else they might just implement it the way they implemented the TOW launchers on the Bradley and the M901
The Aim-54 is more annoying than anything. Sure it’s good at killing people that have no idea what they’re doing, but against a decent player…it’s probably never gonna kill.

There you go. The way it is modeled in WT is it being in the ready-to-fire state
The gun assembly moves up and down, while you can fire lowered, it has almost no gun depression.

Im gonna lose my mind if isreal gets the PT-76B and sweden the Strv 101 Remo. Both vehicles are useless considering they are either alone or cant be put at a reasonable BR. We need actually good vehicles not worthless filler because gaijin doesn’t have anything prepared.
